To be honest, talking about the Leica S-SYSTEM is quite easy. The body is even a little smaller than the flagship DSLRs, but it has a larger sensor. Generally, if you are going to build a digital medium format system, most of your lenses will be the ones previously released in the film age. On the other hand, the lenses for the Leica S-SYSTEM are specifically designed for the system, so their performance is absolutely ultimate. If you want to start a new digital medium format system, I recommend this LEICA S-SYSTEM without hesitation because it is the most cost-effective way to get the top quality all at once, and you don't have to worry about the matching among components. All components are fine-tuned to work best in this system and this will satisfy existing digital medium format shooters who suffer from lack of a total integration of the components. I wondered what to photograph with this monster camera. What makes this LEICA S-SYSTEM unique is the perfect balance of size and quality, so I decided to handle it just like I do with a 35mm DSLR. In particular, shooting moving objects was fun because I felt like I was doing it with a 4x5 field camera!
